As an update to previous stories, ESPN reports ex-NFL QB Eric Zeier left the Arena Football League's Georgia Force on Tuesday for what was described as "an NFL opportunity." His opportunity probably will not be determined until after this weekend's NFL draft. Representatives for Zeier said the QB would not have abandoned his Arena league experiment without some indications that he will be in an NFL training camp this summer. Re-signing with the Atlanta Falcons could be a possiblility.

Updating previous reports, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports former NFL QB Eric Zeier hasn't ruled out a return to the NFL. Zeier is currently playing in the Arena league. He said if the phone calls come, he'll have to be ready. However, he's also tempered his expectations to realize he has to move on should the phone not ring with NFL teams on the other end.

The Atlanta Journal Consititution reports former NFL QB Eric Zeier is now the starting QB for the Georgia Force of the Arena Football League. Former Falcons backup QB Tony Graziani is now starting for the Los Angeles Avengers. Former NFL QB Glenn Foley starts for the New Jersey Gladiators.

Pat Yasinskas reports for the Charlotte Observer Carolina Panthers coach George Seifert will announce on Monday his starting QB for the team's opening game. Barring any unforseen circumstances, it will be rookie Chris Weinke. Dameyune Craig and Matt Lytle are the other quarterbacks on the roster and Seifert said the Panthers have no plans to bring in another quarterback. One QB that could intrigue the team is Eric Zeier, released by the Falcons. "Right now, I would say that we're set," Seifert said. "In any position in football, you always evaluate. But I would say right now these are our quarterbacks."
